The HSAFC-2008 High Strength Angled Fiber Cleaver was developed to reduce back reflection for fibers pigtailed to photonic components. The HSAFC-2008 angled cleaver achieves a high strength cleave of 8 degrees for 125 um singlemode and PM fiber with a minimum cleave length of 3mm. |

|
|
|||||
|
The
fiber is placed in a large groove and set against a scale to give an
accurate cleave length. The tool has a "stapler" like
action. Closing the tool clamps, tensions and bends the fiber. A
diamond blade then gently slices into the fiber at an angle to score
the fiber which cleaves to give an 8 degree end angle. The angle end reduces the back reflection to less than -60dB. Clamping onto the fiber coating or a ferrule or cleaving of different fixed end angles or different fiber diameters can be factory set. | |||||
